“I choose to use GripX often as it’s a good scale to use for my segmented builds and offers a different distinction over traditional materials. Also having material show up that is flat, ready to work and does not need a ton of prep work is awesome.”
“These grips are fantastic. They are extremely solid and are very easy material to shape. GripX is easy to keep a hand on even if the material gets wet which makes it perfect for daily functionality.”
“Functionally, I think it’s the most innovative handle material that has been developed since I started making knives. I also think it looks and feels great, and as a maker, it’s incredibly easy to work with!”
“I got GripX because of the fillets… I felt with GripX that would set the fillets apart and solve an issue of grip in a wet and slippery environment and boy was I right!”
“My main reason for GripX is the unrelenting grip it provides in any condition. The workability of gripx is also great. Also because of the insane amount of color and pattern selection.”
“GripX gives my knives the best of both worlds—great looks and real-world performance. Most of my customers are hunters, outdoorsmen, and hardworking people who actually use their knives, not just collect them. They’ve consistently praised GripX for maintaining excellent traction and control when conditions get wet, muddy, or dirty, making it a material I trust on my working knives.”
“I love GripX because it is incredibly easy to work with and gives a superior grip once finished. If I had my way I’d put it on every single knife I make.”
“It’s perfect for wet work, like filleting fish or skinning out a bear. Any situation you are going to need a sure grip on a knife handle, gripX is the material to use!”
“I love GripX because no matter the level of finish, it provides unparalleled grip. Also the colors are really nice and the 3D GripX is incredibly visually appealing.”
“It’s unlike any other product I’ve used. The different color ways and designs are awesome! I like that GripX gets even more grip when it gets wet, as a hunter I really value that. Gripx is practical and aesthetically pleasing as well.”

Finishing Tips for Diamond Edition GripX™: Diamond Edition is a unique formulation of GripX™ where finishing to a higher grit will provide a higher level of sheen/chatoyance. For the best aesthetic, I recommend finishing between 600 and 1000 grit. To restore the ultimate color, a very thin film of RockWax may be applied and hand buffed - carefully apply the wax as too thick of a layer of wax will degrade the level of grip (you can restore the grip by continuing to hand buff the wax away).
For best grip, I recommend finishing between 220 and 400 grit then sandblasting with 80 grit aluminum oxide media at 40-60 psi. Finishing at 400 grit is what I would consider to be the happy medium for both grip and appearance. To restore the ultimate color, a very thin film of RockWax may be applied and hand buffed - carefully apply the wax as too thick of a layer of wax will degrade the level of grip (you can restore the grip by continuing to hand buff the wax away).
